 Planning and important precautions
Prior to installation, it is important that the installer reads this guide to ensure necessary acquaintance with this product.

The electromotor assembly must be handled carefully. Do not lift it by the internal connections or put it down on the driveshaft.


Beware to keep installation within adviced measurements.



We advice to paint the gearhouse and propellers with antifouling. PS! Do not paint the zinc anodes, sealings or propellershafts.


Do not finish the inside of the tunnel with a layer of gelcoat / topcoat or similiar. It is only room for a thin layer of primer and two layers

of anti-fouling between the tunnel and the props.

With the boat on land, only run the thruster for a fraction of a second, as without resistance it will accelerate very fast to a damaging

rpm. Also, while the thruster is in air, make sure that the propellers have come to a complete stop before performing a direction
change of the thruster, as it does cause damage to the thruster.

This manual is intended to support educated / experienced staff and is therefore not sufficient in all details for the correct installation.


The thruster IP assembly has been tested to be fully ignition protected so that it can be installed in an area with the possibility of

explosive gases in accordance to ISO 8846.

Do not install the thruster in a position where you need to cut a stiffener/stringer/support for the hull integrity without checking with the

boatbuilder that this can be safely done.

When installed in boats approved or classified according to international or special national rules, the installer is responsible for

following the demands in accordance with these regulations / classification rules. The instructions in this guide can not be guaranteed
to comply with all different regulations / classification rules.

NB ! Faulty installation of the tunnel, thruster or panel will render all warranty given by Sleipner Motor AS void.

Stern thruster installation considerations

To achieve maximum effect, reliability and durability from your Sidepower stern thruster, a correct installation is very important.

Please follow the instructions carefully, and make sure that all checkpoints are carefully controlled.

Additional considerations for positioning of the stern thruster

 Make sure that the stern-tunnel does not disturb the waterflow under the hull

 Ensure that when installed the thruster does not foul exisiting equipment inside the boat like steerage links etc.

 Make sure that the water flow from the thruster are not intereferred to much by sterndrives, trimtabs etc. as this will reduce the thrust
considerably.

 It is possible to mount the tunnel off the boat’s centre line if necessary.

 If the stern thickness is to much for the thruster in question you can easily remove hull material in the necessary area to fit the
thruster. You only have to reduce the stern thickness down to the max. thickness measurement in the drawing.

PS ! Take care with grinders as it is very easy to remove to
much in fibreglass
At this time, cut out the centre hole and the transom to the
same internal diameter as the tunnel flange and drill the bolt
holes. Before bolting on the stern tunnel, the prepared area
must be sealed with a gelcoat or similar to ensure there is no
water ingress into the hull.

4. Before fitting the tunnel to the transom, fit the lower gear leg
to the tunnel as described on page 6. We recommend that
you fit the oil feed pipe also before the tunnel is bolted to the
transom.

5. When fitting the tunnel, ensure that there is ample sealant
(Sikaflex or similar) in the sealing tracks of the tunnel flange
and around the bolts to make a water tight fitting (Fig. 1/2).
Bolts, washers and nuts are not included as they will wary de-
pending on the transom thickness We recommend A4 stain-

6. Refer to the installation manual for the recommended thruster
fitting.

Mould on installation of the stern tunnel

1. Make sure that there are enough space both inside and out-
side the transom of the boat.
2. Cut of the bolting flange on the stern-tunnel
3. Grind off the gelcoat both inside and outside the remaining
“tube” atleast 10 cm down on the “tube” (Fig. 1).
4. Offer the stern tunnel to the desired position on the transom
and mark around the tube.
5. Cut the marked hole in the transom of the boat.
If a bow thruster is also installed, we advice to use seper-
ate battery banks for the two thrusters to avoid extreme
voltage drop if both thrusters were to be used at the same
time. Refer to the thruster manuals for adviced battery
capacity and cable sizes for each thruster.
Also ensure that you do not have direct connections of
both + and - if you have built together controls for both
thrusters to avoid current leakage between seperate bat-
tery banks.
If you are installing the standard Sidepower dual joystick
panel this is already secured.

6. Grind off the gelcoat on the transom of the boat in an area of

atleast 10 cm / 4” around the hole, both outside and inside
(Fig. 1).

7. Offer the stern tunnel to the transom in the desired horizontal

position, then bond to the transom with multi layers matt both
inside and outside (Fig. 2).
Take care not to reduce the internal diameter much, as this
will make it more difficult to mount the thruster

8. Apply gelcoat or similar on all bonded areas.

9. Install the gear leg on the stern-tunnel as described in the

installation manual for the thruster but fit the oil feed pipe first.

10. Basic installation of the motor assembly and electrical installa-
tion are described later in this manual.

Fitting propellers
1. Turn the propeller shaft so that the drivepin (5) is in a horizontal position and ensure that it is centred in the propellershaft.

2. Push the propellers onto the shaft with the track for the drivepin in an horizontal position (same direction as you set the drivepin), all
the way in. There should be almost no gap between the propeller hub and the gearhouse.

3. Place the washer (4) on the prop.shaft and then tighten the lock-nut (3) on the propeller shaft.

4. Place the zinkanode (2) in its designated position and tighten the zincanode holding screw (1). Apply a thread glue (Locktite or
similar) to ensure that the zincanode holding screw does not un-screw itself from the propellers rotation.

Fitting the electromotor IP assembly

1. Remove the 4 bolts in the motorbracket.

2. Mount the lower part of the flexible coupling and tighten the set screws. Insert the "rubber/plastic ring" in this lower part.

3. Place the motor gently on the motorbracket. Be careful, the motor is heavy!
SE80/185T: Ensure that the "rubber/plastic ring" goes into position.
Ensure that you are placing the motor so that the cable terminals on it are available for electric installation later.

4. Fasten the motor to the bracket with the 4 bolts and tigthen them.

5. If you are installing a SE100/185T in an angle of more than 45o off a vertical position, the electromotor needs a separate/
additional support. See illustration in the measurements drawings.

6. Lift the lower part of the flexible coupling together with the rubber/plastic ring into the upper flexible coupling. The rubber/plastic
ring must be in its correct position in the upper part, fully inserted but not compressed against it (17 mm).
Secure the lower part of the flexible coupling in its new position by tightening the set-screws.

Final gearleg assembly

NB ! Paint the gearhouse and propeller with antifouling for propellers to prevent growth of barnacles or similar which would reduce the
performance dramatically. Do not paint the propeller shaft, the zincanodes or the end face of the gearhouse.

 Important user precautions

 Ensure that you know the location and how to operate the main battery switch and that disonnects the thruster from all power sources
(batteries) so that the thruster can be turned off in case of a malfunction.

 Always turn the main power switch off before touching any part of the thruster, as an incidental start while touching moving parts can
cause serious injuries.

 Always turn the control device off when the thruster is not in use.

 The maximum continous usage time of the electrical thruster is approximately 3 minutes. The electromotor has a built in thermal cut-off
switch that will shut off the electromotor if it is overheating and re-engage it when it has cooled down some. This should be considered
when planning your manouvering.

 This also means that the thruster will limit its total running time per time period so that you can not count on the thruster to hold you
in a current and sidewind for extensive time periods. Depending on the ambient temperatures etc. the thruster will be able to run ap-
proximately 10 % of the time.

 Never use a thruster close to somebody in the water, as the thruster will draw objects close by into the tunnel and contact with the
rotating propellers will cause serious injuries.

 With the boat on land, only run the thruster for a fraction of a second, as without resistance it will accelerate very fast to a damaging
rpm. Also, while the thruster is in air, make sure that the propellers have come to a complete stop before performing a direction change
of the thruster, as it might cause damage to the thruster.

 If the thruster stops giving thrust while the electromotor is running, chances are that there is a problem in the drive-system. You must
then immediately stop trying to run it, and turn it off, as running the electromotor for more than a few seconds without resistance from
the propeller, can cause serious damage to the electromotor.

 When leaving the boat always turn off the main power switch for the thruster.

 We advice to always keep the main engine(s) running while using a thruster. This will keep the batteries in a good charge condition.
This will also give better performance to the thruster, as a higher voltage at the thruster results in a higher torque (power) in the elec-
tromotor.

 Please note that the performance of a thruster strongly depends on the voltage available at the electromotor. This voltage will decrease
by time because aging batteries have a reduction of capacity. By installing new batteries the effect of the thruster should be back at
the original level.

 Make sure that only one control is used at the same time, if two panels are operated in opposite directions at the same time the thruster
will not run at all. If they are operated in the same direction the thruster will run in this direction.

 If the thruster is not performing or functioning as usual, the cause for this must be found and corrected as soon as possible so to
avoid causing any other or further dammage to the equipment. You must also turn off the main battery switch immediately in case the
problem is of electric origin.

 To activate the docking control panel, push the two “ON” buttons simultaneously.

 The docking control panel shuts of automatically approx. 25 minutes after it was energized. To use the docking control panel later, push
the two “ON” buttons simultaneously.

 The boat switch is an on/off switch device only that controls your thruster(s). The thruster(s) will run at a constant speed regardless of
how hard you pull/push the control switch.

Warning:
 Tampering with the Ignition Protected stern thruster assembly or any attempt to disassemble anything on this thruster ass-
mebly inside the boat can cause an explosion with very serious consequences.

 If there is a problem with your Ignition Protected stern thruster, please contact your dealer.

 Danger: NEVER Disassemble any part of the Ignition Protected stern thruster assembly

Maintenance

» Keep the propeller and gearhouse clean from growth by painting with antifouling before every season.
PS ! The zinc anode, sealing and propeller shafts must abso-lutely not be painted. Be careful that you don't fill paint in the
"tracks" in the gearhouse that the propeller hub moves in.
» Change the zinc anode before every season, or when about half the anode is gone. Always use a sealant on the screw holding
the zincanode to ensure that it does not fall off. Please observe that in some waterconditions it can be necessary to install an extra
zincanode to ensure that it lasts for the whole period between regular service lifts of the boat. Consult your dealer for information on
how to do this.
» As a part of the seasonal service of your boat, and before every season, always check that:
• The propeller is securely fastened
• The bolts holding the electric motor to the motorbracket are fastened correctly.
• The area where the thruster is installed is clean and dry. If there are signs of water you must try to find the source and eliminate it.
• All electrical connections are clean and fastened firmly.
• Make sure that your batteries are in a good condition so that the thruster gets a good voltage. Old or bad batteries will give a re-
duced performance from the thruster.

Warning:
 Tampering with the Ignition Protected stern thruster assembly or any attempt to disassemble anything on this thruster ass-
mebly inside the boat can cause an explosion with very serious consequences.

 If there is a problem with your Ignition Protected stern thruster, please contact your dealer.

rect for your installation by their labels.

Check the voltage at the thruster between main minus The no load voltage should be:
input (A1 on motor) and main plus input point: 12V system =12,7V / 24V system = 25,4 V. If below 12,3V / 24,6V your bat-
teries are not in a good charge state or worn out and must be recharged or
replaced before trying to run the thruster.

Check the voltage at the thruster while you are try-
ing to run it. Keep main engine(s) running to have
continous charge to the batteries.
If less than 8,5V at the thruster the voltage is to low for the thruster to operate cor-
rectly. In a 24V boat the thruster will operate down to approx. 12V, but the perfor-
mance will be very bad. Find and correct the reason for this low voltage which will
probably be one or more of these points: main battery cable sizes and connec-
tions, battery size and condition, fuse and main power switch performance.

If the main solenoids on the thruster are not even
trying to engage (clicking) they are probably not
getting a "run" signal from the control system. Try
to run the thruster without the panel by directly con-
necting the red and the blue or the red and the grey
wires in the controlcable contact coming from the
thruster.
If the thruster runs in both directions, try the same in the connector that goes
into the back of the control panel. If it also works in this position, check the
contact and wires on the back of the panel and try to engage this again by
pushing both ON buttons simultaneously. If the panel does not turn on (see
control light), measure the voltage between the Red and the Black in the con-
tact going into the thruster. If the voltage is good, chances are that the panel
is not working.
If it works by the thruster, and not by the panel there is a bad contact or a
broken lead the controlcables between these two test points.
Measure that you have the correct voltage between the Red (+) and all the
other colours in the contact. If you do not get a reading.

If the thruster does not run at all, or only in one direction
in the above tests, check the internal wiring on the
thruster motor, solenoids and electronic motor inter-
face box to be in accordance with the wiring diagram
and ensure that all connections are clean and tight.
Between main minus (A1 on motor) and the blue and the grey wire connec-
ted to the sides of the main solenoids you should have the same voltage as
between the main battery cables on the thruster.
If not, check that the internal wiring on the solenoid is ok and measure that
there is contact through the magnetising spools of each side of the solenoid
(measure between the red and blue on one side, and red and grey on the
other side with an Ohm meter.). If there are no contact between these, the
solenoid is broken and needs replacing.
